Sydney · Websites & photography

Websites and photos for small shops.

I take the photos and build the website myself. One person, so everything matches: the light, the colours, the feel of your place.

Tell me about your shop See the work

All online. The only visit is the photo shoot.

Work

Photos that feel like being there.

Furniture, jewellery, flowers and the spaces they live in, shot around Sydney. Websites for shops are new for me, so the first case studies will go here, with each owner's permission.

About

Hi, I'm Kody.

I'm Kodai Inagaki, a Japanese photographer living in Sydney. In Osaka I photographed a vintage furniture company, where one or two shipping containers arrived every week, so I'm used to working fast without losing care. I also spent three years leading content for a brand that grew from 60,000 to 360,000 followers, so I know what makes someone stop scrolling.

Small shops are where the good stuff happens. I want yours to look online the way it feels in person.

恩徳 Ondoku is a word from Japanese Buddhism for the kindness we receive and want to give back. That's the spirit of the studio.

Questions

Good to know.

Do I own the website?

Yes. Once it's paid, the site and its files are yours, and your domain is registered in your name. If you ever want to move it, I'll send you everything.

Do we need to meet?

Only for the shoot. Everything else happens by email, or a short video call if you prefer.

I don't have a domain name. Is that a problem?

Not at all. I'll guide you through buying one in your name (about $15 to $30 a year). I never need your passwords.

Can I use the photos on Instagram and Google?

Yes, anywhere for your shop, for as long as you like.

Where do you work?

Anywhere in Sydney within about an hour by train.
